Childhood simple obesity has become a significant public health issue in China. Modern medicine primarily relies on lifestyle interventions and often suffers from poor long-term compliance， while pharmacological options are limited and associated with potential adverse effects. Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） has a long history in the prevention and management of this condition， demonstrating eight distinct advantages， including systematic theoretical foundation， diversified therapeutic approaches， definite therapeutic efficacy， high safety profile， good patient compliance， comprehensive intervention strategies， emphasis on prevention， and stepwise treatment protocols. Additionally， TCM is characterized by six distinctive features： the use of natural medicinal substances， non-invasive external therapies， integration of medicinal dietetics， simple exercise regimens， precise syndrome differentiation， and diverse dosage forms. By combining internal and external treatments， TCM facilitates individualized regimen adjustment and holistic regulation， demonstrating remarkable effects in improving obesity-related metabolic indicators， regulating constitutional imbalance， and promoting healthy behaviors. However， challenges remain， such as inconsistent operational standards， insufficient high-quality clinical evidence， and a gap between basic research and clinical application. Future efforts should focus on accelerating the standardization of TCM diagnosis and treatment， conducting multicenter randomized controlled trials， and fostering interdisciplinary integration， so as to enhance the scientific validity and international recognition of TCM in the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)combined with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy(MBCT)in patients with alcohol withdrawal syndrome(AWS).Methods:The 120 patients with AWS who were observed in this study were all male patients admitted to our hospital from June 2021 to June 2024,the patients were divided into group A(conventional treatment,40 cases),group B(group A combined with rTMS,40 cases),and group C(group B combined with MBCT,40 cases)according to random number table method.The clinical efficacy,self-control ability[Modified Clinical Institution Alcohol Dependence Withdrawal Assessment Scale(CIWA-Ar)score,Visual Analog Scale of Psychological Craving for Alcohol(VAS)score and Pennsylvania Alcohol Craving Scale(PACS)score],anxiety and depression degree assessment[Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)score,Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)score]and quality of life[36 Short Form Health Survey(SF-36)Score],relapse rate and readmission rate were compared among the three groups.Results:The total effective rate of group A,group B and group C increased successively(P＜0.05).The CIWA-Ar,PACS and VAS scores in group B and group C after treatment were lower than those in group A,and group C was lower than that in group B(P＜0.05).The HAMD and HAMA scores of group B and group C after treatment were lower than those in group A,and group C was lower than that in group B(P＜0.05).The SF-36 score of group B and group C after treatment was higher than those in group A,and group C was higher than that in group B(P＜0.05).Relapse rate and readmission rate in groups B and C were lower than those in group A,and group C was lower than that in group B(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The application of rTMS combined with MBCT in patients with AWS can improve clinical efficacy and quality of life,alleviate anxiety and depression,improve patients' self-control ability,reduce relapse rate and readmission rate,with definite effects.

Adipocytic tumors are the most common type of soft tissue tumors,which can be divided into lipomas and liposarcomas.Studies have found that benign lipomas resected from the same site can transform into liposarcomas,especially atypical lipomatous tumors(ALT),suggesting an underlying biological association.In this case,the patient underwent resection of a right neck mass in our hospital in 2017,and the pathology showed fibrolipoma.One year later,the mass recurred at the original site but was not treated.By 2023,the mass had significantly enlarged and extended deeply.MRI showed that the lesion had an unclear boundary with the surrounding fat,suggesting liposarcoma.Puncture and molecular pathology showed MDM2 gene amplification,and the diagnosis of ALT was made,which was confirmed by pathology after complete surgical resection.It can be seen that adipocytic tumors have great differences in biological behavior,and benign lipomas can transform into liposarcomas(especially ALT).Clinically,it is necessary to combine imaging,pathology and molecular detection(such as MDM2/CDK4)for differentiation to formulate treatment plans.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of focused ultrasound and ATP-infrared bioeffect for non-neoplastic epithelial disorders of the vulva(NNEDV),aiming to provide references for the clinical study and selection of individualized treatment plans of NNEDV patients.Methods The clinical data of 278 NNEDV patients attending the gynecology department of some hospital from May 2020 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,who were divided into an observation group receiving focused ultrasound treatment and a control group receiving ATP-infrared bioeffect treatment with the single random grouping mmethod.The observation group enrolled in 143 patients including 84 cases of lichen simplex chronicus(LSC)and 59 cases of vulvar lichen sclerosus(VLS),and the control group had 135 patients including 71 LSC cases and 64 VLS cases.Comparisons were carried out in terms of the therapeutic effect and safety in the two groups,the efficacy for LSC and VLS between and within the two groups,and the clinical symptom scores and the quality of life scores before and after treatment of the two groups.SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results The two groups had no significant differences in response rate and recurrence rate(P>0.05),while the observation group had the cure rate higher and the complication rate higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).In the observation group,the overall response rates for LSC and VLS were not significantly different(P>0.05);in the control group,the overall response rate for LSC was higher than that for VLS significantly(P<0.05).The cure rate for LSC in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,with the differences being statistically significant(P<0.05);the two groups had no significant differences in the cure rate for VLS(P>0.05).The two groups had significant differences in the skin color socre,vitiligo area scoring index and skin elasticity one month,three months and six months after treatment(P<0.05),with the differences being statistically significant in the tissue structure score three months and six months after treatment(P<0.05);there were no significant differences found between the two groups in the pruritus score one month,three months and six months after treatment and in tissue structure score one month after treatment(P>0.05).In the two groups the differences were all statistically significant in the quality of life score three and six months after treatment(P<0.05);the two groups had significant differences in the quality of life score before and after treatment(P>0.05).Conclusion Focused ultrasound and ATP-infrared bioeffect are both effective for NNEDV.Focused ultrasound gains advantages in restoring the color and tissue structure of vulvar skin,and the physical therapy is the first choice for NNEDV that has failed drug therapy and risks for recurrence and canceration;ATP-infrared bioeffect with a low complication rate can be used for the patients with mild symptoms,cracked skin inflammation or those unable to tolerate ultrasound.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(6):59-64]
